proggrrlWhat the!?! It's like someone turned on the Muggy-Crappy-Summer-In-New-York switch today...
Hope you all had a great weekend...I did lots of full on chillaxing, hanging out in Brooklyn eating at amazing restaurants and seeing bizarrely cool Steampunkery in action, going to the very enjoyable kinda-new Brooklyn Flea, and making "urban hikes" all over the place during perfect weather. I avoided INDY (cuz, blech)...and didn't get to THE FALL quite yet.
Also, I had way, way too much fun helping everyone on Whedonesque get hooked on transmedia for new Fox shows. F.T.W. !!!! I highly recommend reading that thread all the way through if you're interested in the FRINGE and DOLLHOUSE transmedia - it's all Fox approved and the thread has become bloated with excellent research and links. *glee*
Btw you may have heard that the great Sidney Pollack has passed away after fighting serious illness for some time now. The guy is cinema royalty, go over here for a few samples of his whole scene. He directed THE WAY WE WERE, THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR, TOOTSIE, and OUT OF AFRICA, and produced a zillion more things, just for starters. I had just seen him this weekend in the terrific documentary STANLEY KUBRICK: A LIFE IN PICTURES, which I highly recommend to any cinephile out there or anyone considering dipping their toes into Kubrick's films. Pollack has some great interview bits near the end when they are discussing EYES WIDE SHUT. RIP, sir.
